Official recap
Could the Cornhuskers bounce back after the title-bearing defeat by Missouri? The question was answered in amazing fashion as Nebraska completely demoralized a fine Kansas team, exploded for a 40-0 lead in the third quarter and coasted to a 40-16 victory. It was Willie Ross leading the attack — scoring three TDs and almost equaling KU’s total rushing production — with massive support from the Scarlet line. An interesting sidelight to an unexpected lopsided contest: All seven TDs were followed by two-point conversions.

H'PEDIA NOTES: John Faiman, the Huskers' PAT kicker, broke a leg in practice earlier in the week. On the KU sideline was assistant coach Bill Jennings, the former Nebraska head coach.
